I'm not entirely sure who said it the first time, but for WWE and WrestleMania there is no turning back now. Okay, so that isn't entirely true, and this is the wacky world of professional wrestling after all meaning every decision can be changed, every right can be wronged and every so-called inevitability can be turned around. Even so, last night's Fastlane event represented the final major stop on the road to WrestleMania. Which makes it all the more baffling just how there Fastlane was. As far as WWE events go, it was pretty damn forgettable. With the exception of the main event, nothing major was set in stone for WrestleMania 32, an event being billed as the biggest of all-time. We are no clearer as to what Brock Lesnar, Dean Ambrose, Kevin Owens, the Wyatt Family and a host of others will be doing at the AT&T Stadium in Texas. Now, I'm not saying that everything needs to be set in stone, but WWE really must be giving us something to look forward to. Creating interest is what puts bums in seats, after all. The problems of Fastlane aren't all concerned with the short-term and WrestleMania, though, and a number of decisions were made last night that may ultimately harm the company in the long-term. Here are 8 things that WWE got wrong at Fastlane, along with a few pointers as to how they could have been done better.
Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
